Good news...? Platelets and Hb decreased

Hello!


For those who don't know or don't remember my husband was diganosed with AA on June 2008.
He was submited to ATG treatment and has been on cyclosporine since then.


Last week my husband had another consultation.
His values are: Platelets 156 (in July they were 190); Hb 13.5 (in July it was 14.5) and WBC 4.8 (in July 4.0).

Doctor decreased cycloporine from 120 mg/day to 50 mg/day and says that if my husband goes on like this he'll stop cyclosporine in January.

Now I wonder if this decrease in Platelets and Hb are normal.
It looks like a great drop, from 190 to 156.

What do you think?

As always, thank you very much for your answers.
